THE YINEGAR POOL.

There is q sort of calculated humOr in
the announcement brought over the wires
the other day of the formation of 9
''vinegar pool" The pool or corner is
one of the institutions of the times, and
so it seems the vinegar men reached the
conclusion they should be up and doing.
Thirty manufacturers of vinegar, repre-
senting ne Arly all sections of the country,
inst. and arranged for a combination to
regulate the vinegar product west of the
Mississippi river. It was agreed to
restrict the manufacture and not to in
crease the capacity of any factory.
Eastern manufacturers said they did no,
care TO 60 into the pool, but obligated
themselves to stand By the association
When such important industries as
cotton oil products, leaf lard, petroleum
or coal outputs are pooled the public
wakes up and grows alarmed. 1t is not
likely, though, that anybody will
lose much sleep or be worried over the
vinegar pool, for there are too many
channels for circumventing lis operations.
Any farmer who makes cider can make
his own vinegar; anybody able to buy
gallon of cheap cider can convert it into
several gallons of cheap vinegar; any
bony able to buy cheap molasses car use
free water with it, and in short while
have cheap vinegsr-not clear, tart arti-
Gle, to be sure, but, nevertheless, it will
be sour, and answer as substitute for
the pooled vinegar. In fact, there are a
dozen or more simple ways of making
vinegar at home. II this vinegar pool

THERE is a growing popular demand
for closer inspection OF railroad bridges.
THE GAZETTE repeats what it said not
long since in connection, with the Vermont
Railroad horror, which accident was so
soon followed by the wholesale murder
on the Providence and Boston Road
RAILROAD bridges, whether of wood or
iron, can be so made as to be entirely
safe under all ordinary conditions of SER
vice, and they can be kept under such in
spection that no element of danger shall
definitely known that half an hours hon
est and competent inspection would have
condemned the Ashtabula bridge upon
the day it was finished. The legislative
committee appointed to investigate the
horror by which eighty persons lost their
lives, reported that the bridge was liable
to go down at any time during the ten
years preceding the accident, under or
binary loads, and it was most remarkable
that it did not sooner occur. In these
disasters all the horrors of death are
combined-crushing, drowning, burning,
mangling, burning and, as in this latest
accident, freezing. There are some
twenty or thirty accidents every year that
are due to defective bridges, and yet rail-
way companies know they can have as
much safety as they choose 10 pay for;
that at any time they can buy bridge of
a first class concern that shall be guar
anteed absolutely safe and permanent by
the very best authority"

men are any better, per Sc, then their
fellow men, or that they do not commit
crimes sometimes. Our theory is that IS
a general thing men OF the class described
are less liable TO get into difficulties in
volving, as the primitive feature, loss Of
life or liberty, than reckless, improvident
men, and are therefore not often brought
into courts. That it was possible, there
fore, to convict a man of Weston's great
wealth and consign him to prison is a
very significant reputation of the theory
that anarchists, socialists, communists
and pessimists generally urge, that law in
the United States is administered for the
oppression of the poor and the protec-
ton of the rich.

THE GAZETTE doesn't see why any one should
co1p ain Of the luxurious magnifcence of the
general Offices of the knights of Labor. If the
knights are able 10 pay for such splendor it is
nobodys business but their own. But hereaf-
ter when they strike for highar wages people
will be less tolerant of having the trade aud
traffic of the country unsettled by such dis
tut ban ces-[F FORT WORTH GAZETTE.
THE GAZETTE vary kindly holds the knights
up with one hand and spanks them with the
other. Does itPuppos that such double dealing
will pass unnotiCed? If man or any class of
Faen set price upon the sweat of their own
brows, whose business is It? When transporta-
hon and manufacturing companies cut down
wages will the people be less tolerant of having

rWiss County Messenger.
"If any man or class Of men set a price
upon the sweat of their own broWs" it is
nobody's business, and other men and
other classes of men who set higher price
for their sweat should not denounce the
first and boycott butchers and water haul
ers for serving them. Does our Wise
county contemporary see the point? We
agree with the Decatur paper that this Is
& free country, ana no man or class of
men have the right to intimidate better
men and other classes of men who dare
to put their own price upon their own
sweat. Does the Messenger see the point?

San Antonio Express; The Galveston
News tickled Houston in the refrigerator
matter, and now asks Houston to tickle
Galveston by a joint movement to get
$780,, zoo, to deepen the channel on the Gal
weston BAR This is as the Express pre-
dicted when the Houston Utilization Oc-
Cured. If the News means for Houston
and Galveston to get together and raise
the money TO do the work proposed, the
Express will applaud; but if the combina-
ton IS to be formed simply to organize
q raid on the state treasury, which in
ference the article in the News leads
up to, then there would be serious
objections, as Galveston is too far
east to become the most available
port for the expenditure of state money
in deep water projects. To epond money
for the purpose proposed by the News
would be for the benefit OF Houston and
Galveston, not the people of the whole
state, for their interests lie in other direc-
tions, and therefore Houston and Calves
ton must spend their own money in deep
water projects for the Galveston bar, if
any is spent out of the general govern
ment appropriations. When the popula-
tion of Texas was nearly all east of the
Houston and Texas Central, and the two
or three railroads then in Texas led only
from Galveston to points in the interior,
and without Interstate connection; then
was Galveston mighty and vast in impor-
lance: but see where the population is
reaching TO, and study the newest rail-
road maps of the state. Galveston once
dominated the commerce of the state,
but the conditions have changed, and if
she wants to make an effort to regain her
lost ground, she will have to do it on her
own money. The people of the state
have lost the interest they had in that
city when it was their only outlet to the
trade of the world. Galveston should
have made its raid on the state treasury
while she was the great and most infu-
entail city in Texas, and the News the
only daily paper worthy of the name in
the state. Then was Galveston mighty;
then the News power in the land. They
slept too long.

A MILLIONAIRE CONVICT

Melton Weston, worth 100000 and
800, 900 or so more, is in the Pennsylva-
MIA penitentiary, for killing one Obadiah
Haymaker. This would seem to indicate
that in Pennsylvania, at least, the COM
mon saying, "the rich can defy the law"
is not true. Millionaire Weston certainly
did not want to go to the penitentiary;
he did not plead guilty and ask for SEN
tence, craving such leniency SIS the court
might adjudge. On the contrary he said
he killed Haymsktr in self defence. He
employed the best legal talent money
could secure to defend him, and his case
went from court to court, his able coun-
sci lighting every inch OF ground, and in
terposing every tecnnicality that would
delay final judgment. But despite all
this, money lavishly expended could not
save him, and he is in the state prison,
wearing convict garb. His friends,
and they are numerous and in
fuentiaI, are DOW at work try
ing to get a pardon for him and may
be successful. TBis fact, however, does
net impair the force OF the precedent fact
that the millionaire was convicted and
sent to prison. The poorest, most brutal
criminal rarely fails to find somebody TO
make an effort for his pardon or signers
to a memorial praying for clemency for
him. Quite often, too, such efforts are
successful and men are let out of prison
who ought to stay there. If Weston's
friends shall obtain his liberty they will
not accomplish anything more than is
very often done for men who are and ever
were as poor as Jobs turkey. 1t may be
urged by those (and they are numerous
clsss) who are ever declsimipg OF the
laws Partially for the rich that Weston's
case is one out of ten thousand or g
hundred thousand. Perhaps it is, butt

THE point made in the House yesterday that,
while the Mcdonald bill in allowiny $40 acres
to be sold to actual settlers, went as far rs
necessary, yet, in the provision for leasing
grazing lands it dis not allow sufficient land to
be given any one lessee, seems TO be- apOlnt
well taken In that western grazing country,
subject to long drOuths and scarcity of grass,
a section, or even two or three sections of
land would furnish pasturage for very limited
number OF cattle and az their present price 1t
would not pay the ranchman to fence in his
lands. 1t would be wise feature to place the
number of acres of grazing lands to be leased
at a much higher figure than at pre- ent in t e
bill Make the bill as equitable in dealing with
cattlemen as with far erS and actual settlers
and there can be no objection TO it except by
the free grass men, Austin Statesman.
There is the only argument in favor of
the lease law in a nutshell: Sin that
western grazing country subject to long
drouths." But what of the effect of
advertising West Texas to the world in
such a manner? West Texas contains al
the publi6tlands, and cheap lands are the
inducement to immigration; and if this
"western grazing country is subject to
long droutbs" well may Commissioner
Walsh officially declare IN effect that the
lease places a check upon immigration,

WELL says the Austin Statesman that
'the action Of the Senate in killing all
discussion upon the pharmacy bill, and
also the bill itself, was childish and
ridiculous in the extreme. The state
compeIs lawyers and doctors to pass
through certain requirements, to have
certain credentials before they can
practice their profession, and yet,
in the matter of druggists, it
seems there shall be free license to
the world to ply the trade. The most IN
settled and unskllled shall have the same
right to mix chemicals ard deal out drugs
as the practical pharmacist. Men
thoroughly ignorant of ell the properties
of the chemicals they handle and COM
bine, and not knowing, when they put
certain construction upon badly written
prescription, whether they are preparing
a healing and harmless potion or the
most deadly poison are, according to the
Senate, competent druggists; and these
meu, lAe CeHd-0 says ny IneII IeluSaI
even to discuss the pharmacy bill, shall
for their private gain and as business
venture, have the right daily and hourly
to imperil life, the only restraint thrown
around their action being the lack of
chance of making mistakes. In other
words, the Senate imperils life upon
the throw of the die in the hands of
